Is there anything better than a fresh tomato? If you love tomatoes like I do, you’ll find this to be one of the coolest salads ever, and so easy to make. Start with a nice big beefsteak-type tomato; slit it into wedges being careful not to cut all the way through the bottom, fill with shredded lettuce and top with bacon bits and a dressing. It is the perfect personal size salad.

After seeing this salad for the first time I searched the internet to see where it might have started. The earliest post I could find was from litehousefoods.com in early 2015. Some variations that I’ve seen include adding tuna fish, avocado, and mozzarella cheese. Like any salad, you’re only limited by your imagination.
